The success of a Covid-19 vaccine will hinge on its delivery

Even if we get the vaccine we need, we mustn’t fail to get it to the people who need it.

If there are not enough doses for everyone, deciding who should get vaccinated within and across countries will need to be prioritized; although this may be a function of whether the vaccine works well enough in particular populations, such as older adults.  STAT
